Elegance is the first word that comes to mind when we hear the term «fashion model.» Tall, thin, physically fit, and beautiful people are typically the models chosen by fashion designers to showcase their creations on the runway.
When compared to regular people, the models establish high standards for themselves in order to keep grace and be recognized as such.
Today, the modeling industry has advanced and welcomes people with disabilities who have talent. For that contemporary representation on catwalks and magazine covers, designers and modeling agencies have teamed up to unleash their potential as brand ambassadors.
I want to tell you about Sofa Jirau, a model from Puerto Rico who is 24 years old and has Down syndrome. Her childhood dream of becoming a model has been realized, and
Jirau, who is from Puerto Rico, is the second model from that nation to represent Victoria’s Secret. Joan Smalls, who was hired in 2011, was the first. Jirau is joined by additional models from different nations, who come in all shapes, sizes, and ages. Celebrities Taylor Hill, Adut Akech, and Hailey Bieber are all participating in the ad with her.
In 2019, Jirau launched a modeling career in her native Puerto Rico. Because of her unmistakable charisma and contagious attitude, the locals adore her.
Jirau joined other top-tier models during New York Fashion Week in February 2020 on the runway.
Sofa Jirau is the owner of the internet store «Alavett,» which you may have found. The name is a Spanish-English pun on her favorite phrase, «I love it.»
From wallets and shirts to phone covers and mugs emblazoned with the characteristic brand name and a heart doodle, her online store sells a wide range of goods.
When she was younger, she declared to the mirror, «I’m going to be a model and an entrepreneur.»
